From Danny O’Neill of The Seattle Times:

RENTON — Linebacker Leroy Hill will plead not guilty to a misdemeanor charge for marijuana possession and will waive the arraignment scheduled for Aug. 31 in Georgia, according to his attorney.

Reza Sedghi, who is representing Hill, said no trial date has been set, but the main issue will be Hill had no knowledge of the marijuana an officer found in the bookbag in Hill's car in Atlanta in January.

Hill was observed asleep at an intersection by another motorist, who called 911. The responding officer pulled over Hill, and while searching the car, found a small bag of marijuana contained in the backpack.
